2021 Raptor 37 Package after 650 miles…my feedback

[smurfslayer]

The tire shine is STRONG in this one.

I didn’t get the power 2kW package —which sadly caused me to forget to order the tailgate step when I ordered my truck. Big error on my part…I am hoping that since I don’t have the power package that I have room under the seat and back wall for an amplifier and proper speaker enclosure. I haven’t explored that area yet.

Went this route...about the best I could find.

In my Mustang, I had to set the changes by linking it to a seat setting. I wonder if thst is the same here.

Good idea. I’ll try it

@RaptorCDH - too bad about throttle response. my current 2007 tundra has 4.30 gears and instant throttle response, hard to modulate when rock crawling and in 4LO so i just bash stuff thanks for the pedalbox tip. wondering if it will be needed if I do the Cobb/Goosetune

LOL My first thought was "Dude needs to find some mud."

How are the road manners, particularly on the highway, with the 37? I don’t want to be fighting to stay in my lane on the way to work. Thanks!

It has lane keeping so it doesn't matter

In all seriousness, the 37s generally track straight and don't wander the road like some tires I have had in the past. I feel my RAM with 34" mud tires wandered more than the Raptor with 37s. I have never driven a raptor, of any gen, with 35s so not sure how it compares to that.

Here are my thoughts on my Raptor 37 (650 miles)

1) ITS BIG, however the visibility is good so I’m okay 2) the drivability I think is better than my 2019 F-150 Platinum, holds the road and soaks up the bumps 3) the orange is a little flashy, but I’m good with it and 4) milage is just short of 16 with a 400+ miles on the truck 5) do I regret my purchase, not at all. This is the truck I have always envisioned without any mods needed.

I’ve owned 8 range rovers —it’s not exactly autobiography level but it’s close to the most current 2018 v8 supercharged I owned —which by the way was the third Range Rover I have owned and needed to be repurchased by the Land Rover under lemon law. They are beautiful ,but not reliable. I appreciate the humor in your reply ,but the material quality is there…the execution of the interior and overall appearance favor the Range Rover…View attachment 325739

Jesus man do you live in a castle ?

Everyone I know who has owned a Range Rover has had issues w/ them ranging from constant minor annoyances to major stranded on road/left @ dealer for weeks & weeks w/ loaner. Don’t really understand the attraction when there are so many other capable & more reliable (& often cheaper) Euro SUVs that also perform well & have that high end lux feel.

While understandably it’s really not even broken in yet, any comment on the MPG in the 37” Gen3 vs your previous Gen2?
